On Friday May 24th, over 60 members came to the Festival Hall to be entertained with an Afternoon Tea laid on by the 20th Anniversary sub committee led by Linda Brighton.
As guests arrived they were treated to a glass of Prosecco or Orange Juice and fifties/sixties music was played in the background.
Tables were laid with plentiful delicious sandwiches, mini pork pies, quiches and other treats supplied by M&S, followed by plates of wonderful mini cakes, and unlimited tea & coffee was available, served by the tireless volunteers.
A table Magician moved around the room delighting all who took part in his tricks, and a quiz identifying different cakes was on each table giving people something to think about whilst they were nibbling. On each table one plate had a ticket underneath which entitled the owner to win the table flower decoration.
The music was changed to Strictly Ballroom Dance Tempo and guests were invited to dance along in front of the stage.
Once everyone had eaten their fill, the winners of the quiz and table decoration were announced.
Many thanks to Linda, and her very hard working committee and volunteer helpers, who aided with the decoration of the tables and hall and the serving of the refreshments all afternoon, plus providing the music to entertain the guests.
A very enjoyable afternoon was had by all.
